Cheatham County deputy chases wanted man on foot

Two suspects with outstanding warrants were apprehended in Cheatham County on Tuesday afternoon following a Cheatham County Sheriff’s Officer’s chase on foot.

Cheatham County Sheriff’s Office Deputies Ryan Hawkins and Dahianna Arguello were called to a residence on Bearwallow Road to locate a woman wanted by Metro Nashville on two warrants when they noticed a man in a black hoodie identified as Demon Jackson, 38, run inside the house from the backyard.

Jackson was wanted on several felony warrants by various agencies including the Ashland City Police Department and Robertson County, according to the Cheatham County Sheriff’s Office incident report.

Jackson ran from the house when deputies tried to catch him inside. He had about 50 yards on Arguell, who began pursuing him on foot, taking the chase through a wooded area, across Murff Acres Road and through the woods again for about 10 minutes.

She finally caught up to Jackson resting at a black pickup truck, out of breath.

At the Bearwallow Road residence, the woman whom deputies were searching for at that location was found hiding in a closet. She and Jackson were both taken into custody.

A black pickup truck located at the scene was apparently the same one that was reported stolen April 20 and that Jackson evaded the previous day, the report states.

Now being held in the Cheatham County Jail, Jackson had seven active warrants for his arrest, which were all served.

He faces two new charges of evading arrest on foot and possessing a stolen vehicle. Jackson is also charged with theft over $10,000, evading arrest in a vehicle, possession of drug paraphernalia and others, according to booking documents.
